Randy Ball (MiG17)

F-22 Demonstration Team

Made famous by the Vietnam War, the MiG-17F was the primary enemy aircraft engaged in the skies over Vietnam

by U.S. aircraft, such as the A-4,A-7, F-8, B-52, F-100, F-105 and its primary nemesis, the F-4 Phantom II. During that war and up until the F-16 entered service, it was the tightest-turning ďŹ ghter in the world.When production started in the 1950s, its VK-1F engine made it one of the ďŹ rst production jet ďŹ ghters in the world with an afterburner.

The MiG-17F #1611 entered service with the Soviet bloc in March 1960 and wasn’t withdrawn from service until May 1990.

The Air Combat Command F-22 Demonstration Team at Langley Air Force Base performs precision aerial maneuvers to demonstrate the unique capabilities of the world's only operational ďŹ fth-generation ďŹ ghter aircraft. Team members also exhibit the professional qualities the Air Force develops in the

Randy Ball’s MiG-17F spent almost four years in restoration, and is one of only a handful of vintage jets ying the North American air show circuit. It has an authentic paint job and is the only MiG available for ground display with fully restored guns.

Ball’s MiG has been seen by millions of air show fans across North America and featured in numerous publications It has been ďŹ lmed on several occasions, including performing as the enemy aircraft with the USAF’s F-4 Phantom* for the Discovery Channel and it is now being featured in a new ight simulator program.

Greg Poe started his ying career at an early age and earned his pilot’s license while still a teenager. His ight instructor, John Chambers, introduced him to aerobatics early on and it quickly turned into a passion that continues to this day.

Poe’s love of aerobatics led him to enter competitions around the country, which enhanced his skills and eventually led to his ďŹ rst airshow performance in 1992. Shortly after, he became a full time airshow pilot and a main stay on the

Reserve and civilian Airmen serving at home and abroad. It’s from that diverse group of Air Force professionals that the Thunderbirds team is formed.

The team’s primary mission is twofold: ďŹ rst, to exhibit the capabilities of modern, warďŹ ghting aircraft and, second, to demonstrate the high degree of skill maintained by Air Force members serving in a variety of career specialties.

The Red Tail Project, part of the Commemorative Air Force, was founded to keep spreading that message and exposing people to the extraordinary gentlemen who set such an inspirational example.
